Stuart, FL--For an unprecedented fourth time, a Kadey-Krogen Yacht has been honored with the PassageMaker Magazine People's Choice Award. The award presented at Trawler Fest last week in Stuart, Florida, was given to Invictus, hull number one of the new Krogen 55' Expedition Trawler Yacht. Proud owners Bill and Lisa Roberts from Dallas, Texas, were in attendance to accept the award.

The People's Choice Award was presented on the final day of the Stuart Trawler Fest after nearly 1,500 attendees had a chance to tour the trawlers and vote for the best in show. The constant stream of attendees in and out of the new 55' Expedition was a clear indication of her popularity among a crowd of cruising enthusiasts. Seasoned cruisers as well as newcomers to the lifestyle were all drawn to the powerful but graceful lines of the Krogen 55' Expedition and the spacious, elegant, and functional layout of the interior.

"The Krogen 55' Expedition, was really a hit and we were thrilled to help introduce her to a dedicated cruising-under-power audience," said Rob Dorfmeyer, publisher and general manager of PassageMaker Magazine. "With dozens of trawlers on display including at least 15 larger than 50 feet, the 55' Expedition was the clear and decisive winner."
